I recently had the pleasure of attending the AAAI.org event at Stanford University celebrating the life of Marvin Minsky.

The event was organized by distinguished researcher and Marvin’s good friends Ted Selker and Henry Lieberman, a research scientist at the Minsky Institute for AI at MIT CSAIL, to provide a place for people who knew and learned from his work to share memories of how he touched and influenced their lives.

My colleagues and I, at Sentient Technologies, wrote up a blog on the memorable event which is available here: http://www.sentient.ai/remembering-marvin-minsky/. We also created a Marvin Minsky Remembrance Gallery: http://www.sentient.ai/minsky/, and invite you to enjoy reflecting on Marvin’s life.
